Grace of Love

Maysarahs

“Pah, the guest is invited to breakfast first. They must not have had breakfast. The journey is quite far.” Invite Ellie to prepare food assisted Bi Inah.

“Mari, we fill the energy first so that we can think clearly.” Maysarah and Ratih walked behind Edwin.

“Include me Ellie.” Apply politely.

“Maysarah, this is my nephew Ratih.” Ratih smiled politely, extending his hand to Ellie.

Ratih looked down unable to see the sadness on Auntie's face that he had always cared about. He poured out his love more than his own mother.

“Do not hesitate May, Train. We are family, however we cannot be separated.” Entertain Ellie who felt a pain in her heart.

Maysarah held back her tears, her eyes were teary despite still trying to be firm and looking fine. Train tightly grasped his aunt's hand to keep it strong.

The breakfast was so quiet, there were only a few jabs from Ellie's mouth to ward off tension. Maysarah and ratih did not make much noise, they looked very exhausted.

Finish breakfast Ellie brings Maysarah and Ratih to the back garden enjoying a cup of the warm tea to accompany their conversation this morning. No one opened their voices.

Silent.

“Hmmmm....” Ellie is confused where to start. “May, we seem to be the same age. How old is your daughter?”

“He died at the age of 30.” May tried to keep smiling. “She's a very nice girl, she never got mad at me. He routinely gives me news.” May opened her phone, an old message she never deleted.

My daughter is beautiful Mah, her name is Hanna Gayatri.

From now on Mamah is called Eyang and Hanna.

Eyang..cutenya already can road Yang.

Sometimes we visit, Eyang, Hanna wants to know her.

Some messages are heartbreaking because May still has not opened her heart to her daughter. Though in the bottom of his heart he was very lost a daughter who only preferred to live with a man of his choice.

“She must be a very impressive Princess.” Ellie was moved to read such a warm message. Nindi grew up to be a very warm and sweet girl. “Nindi sure can downgrade good properties from your daughter May.”

May nodded in agreement, as she knew herself Nindi grew up without parental affection. It was her daughter who replaced the role of raising Nindi lovingly.

“May...” Edwin clasped his wife's hand, fearing that his words would hurt Maysarah.

“Tell me, I'm also confused as to how now. I really just want to make amends to my daughter Agni. Only by taking care of and caring for Hanna can I make amends.” May held back her tears, her chest felt tight.

“But, can I give you any suggestions?” May nodded. “Do not offend May, what if we let Hanna be comfortable first with your presence. Stay here, let Hanna know who you are May.” Ask Hanna not to feel confused either.

“Will Nindi let me be close to Hanna? She must have been afraid I separated her from Nindi, I couldn't possibly do it.”

“Can May, Nindi just freaked out. She will be able to accept if we enter slowly, Nindi is a very kind and loving May. Look at your daughter, she even loves you very much no matter what your relationship is.” Ellie told May to follow her husband's advice.

“After all we can't force Hanna either, she'll hurt May. Believe me Nindi and Hanna are both tied together. They can't be separated May.” Nindi was very hurt May, Edwin told himself.

“I actually just want to ask Nindi to hand over Hanna, let Nindi no longer bear the burden of raising Hanna. Let me take care of him.”

“Can't be May, Nindi or Hanna won't want to if asked to let go of each other. They take care of each other in joy and sorrow.” Ellie tries to convince May to go the other way to stay close to Hanna.

“I really need your help. Helpme! Persuade Nindi to hand over Hanna with a breast to me. I beg you..” Sobbed bitterly.

He cried when he heard his aunt pleading.

"Don't be insistent on May, I know how you feel. But forcing Hanna when she doesn't know you won't make you feel sympathy for her. He's May's smart kid." Edwin tries to convince Maysarah, his actions bring Hanna forcibly wrong.

"If I wait and he's not willing to go? I can't make amends for my daughter."

"That's not how a mother should behave. You're wrong for not loving your daughter. But don't take Hanna because I'll never let her." Ayman suddenly appeared with a stirring emotion.

He just got back from out of town.

"Silent Son." Ellie took Ayman to sit next to her. Not letting go of Ayman's clenched hand held back the anger. "He's Ayman My son. She's been looking after Hanna all this time like her own daughter. You can imagine if Hanna lost us May."

Maysarah started thinking.

Hanna did not live hardships, many good people who loved her sincerely.

Maysarah sobbed in the insertion of Ratih, he really only wanted Hanna to be able to live with him, make up for all his mistakes in the past that separated him from the Princess only wayangnya which turned out to be so sad fate.

“Patience and heartbreak May, we try to take care of Hanna with May. We can raise her lovingly as we have done all this time May. Hate on May.” Ellie rubbed Maysarah's back full of sadness, a mother who lost her baby.

“I do not deserve forgiveness. I must be in the law of God because of my sins on my daughter.”

“No May, God gives you a chance to change. Nindi will definitely see your sincerity May. Trust me, she's a wise and loving woman May.”

After a long debate, Maysarah decides to introduce herself to Hanna. Won't force Hanna to come and live with him. Let Hanna know her as her grandmother.

"Is it better Nin?" Nindi nodded with gratitude. Without Ivar he would have lost his way.

"I'm really not ready to take Hanna off right now." Ivar felt a tightness, how could Hanna be away from him. They look after each other and need each other.

"Don't think Hanna could be away from you, too. You don't know how Hanna put her heart into action when you silenced her a few days ago." Nindi smiled bitterly. Remember how she treated Hanna trying to get away from her.

“Hanna and I have promised to be there in every situation we face. I even asked you to accept Hanna when you proposed to me.” Ivar clasped Nindi's hand tightly.

“I also fell in love with her, not only with you I fell in love with Nin….Hehehehe.” Ivar himself loved Hanna so much.

“I know, she's my strength Bang, I wouldn't have made it this far without Hanna. She always knows how I am.”

"Tante...ayo play." Hanna waved a hand asking Nindi to play with her.

"Tante is tired of Han, let Uncle be with you." Ivar gets up from his seat, Ivar sits on the swing with Hanna.

There was a happy laugh as Ivar teased her. Simple happy Hanna. He doesn't need luxury or excess. He only asks to be noticed by those he cares about.

Soon Ivar takes Hanna and Nindi home.

“Hanna, had Hanna not stayed with Aunt how?” Hanna squinted, feeling strange and unfamiliar with the question Nindi was asking.

Ivar who was driving gripped the steering force of the car he was driving.

“Questions Hanna can't answer.” Look out the window.

“And it was Han, Hanna would be great and would find a life partner also later Han.” Nindi smiled looking at Hanna's sullen face from the rearview mirror.

“Still a long time ago, I was lazy to think about it.” Hanna closed her eyes.

Hope Nindi won't ask any other strange questions.

Pregnant women love to be weird.

“We are destined to live together.” There was a happy smile on Nindi's face.

“Possibly Grandma Hanna is still at home, she's at peace. And remember Nin, be a good woman as we know her. He is entitled to be close to Hanna.” Nindi brushed off Ivar's hand. His heart was still unable to make peace.

“Let the Brother Hanna bring in.” Ivar immediately carried Hanna who was asleep during the trip.

Sure enough, Nindi could not hide her frustration when she saw Maysarah was still at home. He was still afraid that Hanna would be taken away secretly if they were off guard.

“She slept well?” May asked when she saw Hanna in Ivar's arms.

Ivar just nodded and immediately entered carrying Hanna. Maysarah follows Ivar to Hanna's room.

“He must be exhausted yes Nak.” Maysarah kissed Hanna's forehead affectionately.

“Aunt already ate?” He asked quietly for fear of disturbing Hanna who was still sleeping.

“Let's go out son, pity later Hanna wake up.” Maysarah walked in Ivar's sidecar who could not bear to see his face full of grief.

“Nindi, can Aunt hug you Nak?” Nindi who was still a little annoyed but could not get angry with the old man nodded. “Thank you Nin, Hanna grew up to be a very beautiful girl, smart and full of good people around her.” Nindi cried, her tears just escaped.

“Sorry because Nindi can't live without Hanna Bi.” Her crying voice was unbearable, letting out all her annoyance to be relieved.

“No Nin, don't apologize. This old man who doesn't know himself. I'm the wrong Nin, I shouldn't bother you. I should be the one apologizing to you.” May is no less sad considering how long the distance separated because of her selfishness.

“I'll keep Hanna, please don't take Hanna Bi. Let Hanna be with Nindi.” Now his voice pleaded sincerely.

“Aibi won't bring Hanna, Auntie feels Hanna is more comfortable and safe with you guys. There's Ivar and Ayman who can take over the role of his father who's gone. You all make me sure Hanna will be better off with all of you.”

Nindi still sobbed helplessly, she was relieved to hear Maysarah no longer wanted Hanna to live with her.

“Tante..” Hanna's voice that turned out from earlier heard their conversation.

“Han..has woken up well, here dear.” Nindi rubbed her tears violently.

Hanna approaching. Hanna was sitting on Nindi's lap. “Greetings dear, this is Eyang.” Hanna is digesting if Eyang is another call from Grandma or Omah. Nindi nodded.

“Iya Nak, this is Eyang Nak.” Hanna scratched her eyebrows still did not understand.

“Pelan-pelan just Han, she's a new member of our family dear.” Hanna now smiles, Ayman's explanation is more Hanna can understand.

“So our family more and more yes Uncle.” Hanna had already moved into the lap of Ayman who had just entered the living room, Ayman nodded his head asserting her Daughter's question.

Now Maysarah really understands how they look after each other and love each other.
